Winter time is citrus season on the Big Island, Hawaii. This “bumpy skinned” kaffir lime is mostly used for zest. When I ask people to scratch and smell it, they are taken aback by it’s sweet, but powerful aroma. There has been a vodka made with this unique smelling, and tasting lime. Citrus peels are said to be good at fighting skin cancer.

These are yellow dragon fruit. They are easily cut in half and scooped out with a spoon. It tastes like a melon and kiwi combined. South Kona Fruit Stand is planting more everyday in order to keep up with the demand for this super delicious fruit. It is used in their popular “DragonFruit-Mango” smoothie.
